Slightly OT:

Haven't thought about this in eons, was the MSX port that bad? Played it on the Commodore 64 back then. Whilst it was a tad simplistic, the "fake" 3d pretty impressed me -- including the "seamless" transition of first fighting on the planet's surface, and then taking off to space. Game seems to have gotten fairly alright ratings back then.

Just checked, can see where you're coming from. Quite a bit of a difference there... Visually, whilst the sprites on the MSX aren't as pixelated, it lacks the sense of depth, fluidity and the sound. There's visual glitches constantly too on MSX (Gameplay vids in Spoiler because of the OT)
